Small error -
24 - # of games United has played consecutively without being shutout (United holds league record with 52 games unbeaten - a record which will never be broken)
unbeaten should be not shutout

You seem to have forgotten about the 3-2 win over Kansas City on the road for some of those figures... :o

Whoops.
Did that column off the cuff.
It is probably strewn with errors. Nothin' new really. ;)

You can blame my editor Mike Martin for that. :D
Thanks for picking that up. I of course meant to say 52 games without being shutout, not unbeaten..

I forget. What was the unbeaten streak from the end of the 04 season to the beginning of the 05 one? Including playoffs and CCC games I think it must be at 12 games. I understand it's not an official streak but nonetheless... let's see... Yep. 12 games. So we just tied Peter Nowak's record this past saturday.
That streak started on October 2nd with a 1-0 win over some team that was called the "metrostars". Funny name.
1) Oct 2 win 1-0 @ metrostars
2) Oct 9 1-0 win vs NE
3) Oct 17 win 3-2vs metros
Playoffs
4) Oct 23rd win 2-0 @ metros
5) Oct 30th win 2-0 metros
6) Nov 6th PK win (tie) vs NE 3-3 in regulation
7) Nov14th MLS Cup win vs Kansas 3-2
8) March 9th 2-1 win vs Harbor View CCC game in Germantown
9) March 16th CCC 2-1 win @ Harbor View
10) April 2nd 2-0 win @Chivas
11) April 6th CCC 1-1 tie vs Pumas
12) April 9th 1-1 tie vs Fire
During this win streak:
-three ties
-nine wins
-23 goals for, 11 goals against
-four shutouts- all vs the metros
